Smells Like the Ocean By Jaredon 11/14/2013

Jared would recommend this product to a friend

I have been using this product for over 3 years, running it 24/7 changing out every 3-4 weeks. Its phenomenal, and is underestimated in its description. In my most recent tank setup I have used this media in a mesh bag (So it doesn't blow around:) in a life-reef filter cylinder, similar to the functionality in the reef octopus on this site (SKU: 205606) My open top tank literally smells like the ocean. a Little bit goes a long way. and on occasion I have let this product go 6 weeks without changing. Water clarity never drops.

Best carbon for the moneyBy hanson 10/17/2013

I used to use Rowa, but this is the best bang for the buck. Use it in BRS reactor along with phosphate media, corals, fish and I love it.

Too small for my reactorBy Roberton 9/22/2013

Robert would recommend this product to a friend

I have an aquamax media reactor and this carbon is too fine. It goes through the strainer and ended up all over my tank. I'm sure it is a quality product, but it may not work with your reactor. I replaced it with some larger granules that a friend had(which was also BRS Brand) so that is what I'll get for next time

Definitely get a funnel so you can pour it easily in the canister. Works great.

Fantastic - Reactor, Media Bag - you name it.By Stephenon 9/10/2013

Stephen would recommend this product to a friend

I run this on my reef tank in a TLF 550 reactor, and every now and then I run it on my planted aquarium in a Fluval FX5 - i put it in a Sachem "The Bag" media bag for that. It works great.

The reviewer that had it blow out all over his tank was probably blasting water through his reactor so fast the Carbon wouldn't have worked well anyway. My reactor is inline after another 550 w/ High Density FO. The combo is magical.

great performanceBy Jasonon 9/1/2013

This product is just as described. Has little to no fines to rinse out! Packs in nice and seems to maintain flow rather nicely.

Hands down the best I've ever usedBy Matt on 8/30/2013

Matt would recommend this product to a friend

OK, I've always been a carbon user and seen negligible results (box store carbon petco etc).This product is nothing short of amazing. It has done wonders for my water clarity in my reef tank. I also gave my wife a "reef tank hand me down" for her 75G fancy goldfish tank. We recently put a new log in the tank and it has been leaching for months, Turning the water a sickly yellow. I filled my old GFO reactor (just replaced it with a BRS dual reactor) with ROX and put it on the goldie tank.. In ONE DAY the water is absolutely crystal clear... Thank you BRS, You should market this stuff for the freshwater industry as well!

Awesome carbonBy Seanon 8/27/2013

Sean would recommend this product to a friend

I use the ROX with the BRS GFO in my BRS reactor and the combo works perfectly every time. Crystal clear water!! Plus, hardly any rinsing of the carbon is necessary. I'm not sure why one reviewer has said not to use this in a reactor but I can tell you there are absolutely no issues using it in the BRS reactor. I have never found any of the carbon floating around in my sump.

I love the BRS bulk premium rox 0.8 carbon. I order at least a half gallon every other month. I use it on both of my salt water aquariums. A 180 gallon reef tank and a 110 gallon fish/rock only tank. This particular carbon works more effectively than any other carbon I have tried. I use it in combination with GFO on the reef tank.

Do not use in a reactorBy Katon 5/6/2013

Kat wouldn't recommend this product to a friend

While ROX takes out the organics in the water much better than alternate carbon products, the particle size makes this a horrible choice for a reactor. In fact the product should clearly state "not for use in a reactor". I called BRS and switched to lignite small particle and could not be happier that most of the carbon is not being spit out. It might mean I have to use more product or change more frequently but better that than have carbon all over the place.

By far the best carbon on the market. Its a very fine carbon and rinses in less than a minute and out last and out performs any other carbon.

I've been using the ROX carbon for a few months now and it seems to work as advertised. I can't compare it to the other carbons, but can say that this one works. My system is 200 gallons total and I use 1.5 cups in a reactor, changed every two weeks. Things are still very clear by the end of the two weeks, so I imagine that it lasts longer, but I like to keep things conservative.

I haven't worked with a lot of carbon over the years, but this stuff seems pretty nice and high quality. I put it in my new BRS carbon reactor and it cleared up the tank in just a few days. I will probably replace more often than the instructions say though, from what I have been reading elsewhere.

So far so good.By Flipon 3/5/2013

Flip would recommend this product to a friend

Ok, I just bought a gallon of this stuff and loaded into my marineland Hot Magnum 250 filter. Too early to tell if will give any better results then the regular Carbon you buy at the local store, but there are two things I can definitely comment on:

1) This stuff is small. I didn't realize how small. It looks like metal shavings. I was a bit concerned it might make it out of the filter cartridge and jam up my filter, so make sure before you buy this stuff you have a fine filter sleeve/cartridge. Get a ruler and really look at a millimeter. This is .8mms.

2) They were telling the truth when they said it has low dust. After I loaded it into my cartridge I tried to wash out the dust. Normally the water runs black for about a minute but this stuff made me look stupid. I couldn't see the water dim at all when it ran through.

Anyway, that's all I got for now. Good Luck.

Fits in top of TLF phosphoban reactorBy Paulon 2/21/2013

Paul would recommend this product to a friend

I get this for the sole purpose of putting 1/4 cup in the top of my TLF phosphoban reactor just above the top circular foam filter. This allows me to get cleaner water, and also helps to catch some of the particulate from the gfo. Clean water and a sump not stained red!

I used the cheaper media for years and finally realized that to be truly successful in the aquarium hobby, you need to spend money one quality equipment and media. This definitely worth every penny.

Well worth the additional price!By JABlacheron 2/3/2013

JABlacher would recommend this product to a friend

The ROX carbon is a bit more expensive than the pellet and granular form but well worth the expense. Just be sure to watch the flow rate going through your reactor to insure that you don't shoot the media through your sponges and in to your sump. If you want crystal clear water this is a great help though!!

Very clean product, takes less than 1/2 a gallon to run clear. I've been using this with a BRS reactor and have been extremely satisfied. Highly recommend it.

GREAT PRODUCT WORTH THE PRICEBy Bryceon 1/24/2013

Bryce would recommend this product to a friend

This is the best carbon I have ever used compared to the carbon I previously used. There is almost no dust in this and it seems to last longer. The small size of the granules and the added efficiency of using it in a reactor allows you to use considerably less than you might require with other carbon. The superb quality of this product makes it well worth the extra few dollars.
